Re: Why is java considered a language for "web" or "internet" programming?

I've been learning a bit of java, because I've been led to believe it
is the language to use if you want to make web sites. So far, it just
seems like C or C++, more or less.

C is not similar to C++ or Java, they are object oriented languages, while C is a procedural language, the only similarity is the basis of the syntax. If you do not know OO you should pick up a book on the subject to discover the true benefits of OO.
